Joe says the Dolphins are essentially back to square one and urges fans to be patient with the new regime as they clean up years of roster and cap mistakes — even after the loaded 2023 team, which he calls the franchise's best roster in 25 years, still fell short. The focus shifts to Hollywood's ongoing drama from coaching his kids' basketball team, where over-the-top parents are creating chaos on the sidelines.

Peter Wehner's new Atlantic article hits hard—and his appearance on Morning Joe might shock you. Why? Because a group of secular news hosts just articulated the Gospel more clearly than many white evangelical pastors. In this episode, I share key clips from that conversation, unpack what it means for the future of American Christianity, and explain why I'm encouraged, not discouraged, by this cultural shift.

This sermon explores Peter's bold gospel message on the Day of Pentecost in Acts 2. After the Holy Spirit descended and the disciples spoke in various languages, Peter addressed the crowd—explaining that this was the fulfillment of prophecy and proclaiming Jesus as the crucified and risen Messiah.Peter declared that Jesus' miracles proved He is the Son of God, His death was God's plan for our salvation, and His resurrection was witnessed and confirmed by the Holy Spirit. When the people were “cut to the heart,” Peter called them to repent, believe, be baptized, and receive the Holy Spirit.A powerful reminder to find our true identity in Christ alone.Please let us know if you are watching our stream for the first time, if you have made a decision, or need prayer – text CONNECT to (941) 260-1395 or click here: https://form.church/connectionClick here if you would like to give online: https://subsplash.com/u/-QJD4RD/giveMusic used with permission, CCLI License # 594759, Streaming Plus License # 21044022
For thousands of years Christians have gathered around the world once a week to remember and celebrate Jesus together. However, is what we call “church” what it was intended to be? This movement that we have been swept up in began with a handful of people who were not terribly sure of what they were doing. In fact, they were mostly unsure and confused in their nature. But by the grace of God, the Holy Spirit empowered them to establish and lead a revolutionary vision creating witnesses of the love and grace of Jesus that has continued even to this day. We are here today because of the ACTS OF THE APOSTLES through the Holy Spirit just weeks after Jesus was crucified and resurrected. This study of the book of Acts should bring us back to purpose of the church and the power of the Holy Spirit. --- Moments after being filled with the Holy Spirit, Peter delivers an incredibly insightful and powerful sermon. But what catches our attention is that 50 or so days earlier, Peter had the darkest night of his life and was ready to throw everything away. We see that when the Holy Spirit fills our brokenness, we are stronger than we have ever been.

Eugene Stowe explores why specific prayers often go unanswered and refutes "prosperity" theology. He argues that effective prayer must align with God's sovereign will, which humans cannot fully grasp. By linking Philippians, 1 John, and Romans, Stowe posits that the Holy Spirit acts as both an "Intercessor" and "Interceptor." When believers offer "improper" prayers outside God's plan, the Spirit intercepts and corrects them, substituting human desires with divine necessities. This process ensures God always supplies a believer's true needs, allowing them to trust the outcome even when it differs from their original request.

What sleep habit do even the pros secretly break—and why could it be sabotaging your rest? Surprise: It's NOT what you think! Sleep science inside.Ever wonder if sleep experts really follow their own advice? In this candid, eye-opening episode of The FAM Podcast with Mark Kinsley, Tara Kinsley sits down with Kristina Espinoza (King Koil) for a revealing conversation that's equal parts vulnerable and practical.The big reveal: Kristina preaches sleeping on your back for better health—but privately admits she's a stomach sleeper! Why does this matter? Because, as she shares, sleep posture can affect everything from your airways to your skin and even your long-term health. If you've ever struggled to break a bad sleep habit (or felt guilty about it), you're not alone—even the industry's best have their slip-ups.But the insights go way beyond sleep hygiene. Kristina opens up about fiercely protecting her peace, setting boundaries at work and in life, and the struggle of saying no—especially to long-time friends and industry norms. You'll hear her contrarian take on why hiring “industry veterans” may be holding back true innovation in mattress retail, and how a more emotionally intelligent approach (often championed by women) could transform the future of sleep.Whether you're a retailer, sleep enthusiast, or just tired of one-size-fits-all sleep advice, this episode is packed with real-life stories, actionable habits, and the honest truths you won't hear anywhere else.Timestamps:- 00:54 – The sleep habit Kristina breaks (but preaches!)- 02:00 – The hidden risks of stomach sleeping and how she tries to change- 04:10 – Boundaries Kristina fiercely protects and why it's life-changing- 07:13 – The surprising toxicity of "helping" friends in crisis- 15:29 – Why the industry must stop hiring on experience alone- 18:23 – The moment Kristina almost quit—and what made her stay- 24:57 – How women would run the mattress industry differently- 26:05 – The emotional side of buying a mattress (and why it's ignored)- 29:06 – The playlist that powers Kristina's workdays- 36:03 – Market nightmare: The shoe mistake every retailer should avoid---**Connect with The FAM Podcast:
Episode 99 of the Operation: Thriving Marriage podcast, challenges the modern assumption that marriage is merely a legal contract, emotional bond, or private commitment. Bryon and Jen Harvey explore how Scripture presents marriage as a divine institution established by God Himself, not a social invention or cultural arrangement. From the beginning, marriage was designed to be more than companionship or stability—it was meant to reveal something true about God. Jesus affirms this sacred design by teaching that marriage is a divine joining humans are not meant to redefine or divide (Genesis 2:24; Mark 10:6–9). The problem, the Harveys explain, is that both culture and the Church have often reduced marriage to something far too small. When marriage is treated primarily as a tool for personal fulfillment or a private relationship with private impact, its deeper purpose is lost. This reduction creates confusion about why marriage matters so much in Scripture and why it carries such weight and permanence. At the heart of this misunderstanding is a forgotten truth: marriage is rooted in the imago Dei—the image of God—and is meant to function as a visible, public witness rather than a purely personal preference. The solution offered is a robust theological vision of marriage as a living reflection of the Triune God. Just as God eternally exists as Father, Son, and Holy Spirit—distinct yet perfectly united in love—marriage is two people joined into one union through mutual, self-giving love. Christian marriage, though imperfect, is designed to make God visible through everyday acts of love, humility, honor, and service (John 13:35). Marriage is never merely personal; it is always formative and revealing. Every marriage tells a story about God. The question is not whether others see God in our marriage, but what they are learning about Him by watching how we love one another.

Former evangelism professor Chick Shaver compares the local church to a hospital nursery, where new converts are "spiritual infants" requiring specialized care and warmth. He warns that without this intentional care, many converts perish spiritually within weeks. Shaver illustrates this through Dan and Judy, a couple who faced indifference at two churches before finding a welcoming community. The intentional outreach by laypeople and the pastor ultimately led to the couple's conversion and to their own ministry to others, demonstrating that a warm congregational climate is vital for spiritual growth.

This sermon for the fourth Sunday of Advent focuses on love, emphasizing that God enters the "messy" and imperfect realities of life. By examining the genealogy in Matthew 1, the speaker highlights God's faithfulness through forty-two generations of flawed individuals. The story of Joseph illustrates a "costly commitment" to trust God's plan over societal expectations or fear. Ultimately, the message of "Emmanuel" assures believers that God is present in their struggles and invites them to surrender their pursuit of perfection to Jesus.

This sermon declares that God's people possess an unstoppable joy that flourishes even in life's most barren "deserts". Rooted in Isaiah 35, the message distinguishes true joy from fleeting happiness, describing it as a "living reality" that does not wait for perfect circumstances. Instead, this joy audaciously erupts amidst brokenness, just as a botanical "superbloom" transforms a wilderness with radiant life. The speaker assures listeners that God is actively turning their sorrow into everlasting gladness, promising that joy will ultimately triumph and drive all sorrow away.

This Advent sermon focuses on the theme of peace, illustrated as a "two-sided coin". The first side is "peace with God," established through the birth of Jesus and salvation. The second side is the "peace of God," which requires believers to trust God rather than leaning on their own understanding. The speaker emphasizes that biblical peace is not the absence of conflict, but rather the presence of God amidst life's struggles. The message concludes by inviting listeners to find this peace through prayer and faith. Lifelong Learning Code: 80890 Click here to learn about Lifelong Learning.

In this Advent episode, Dr. Scott Sherwood of Kansas City First Church of the Nazarene explores the theme of Hope. Describing the season as an "adventure," he invites listeners to look back at the Incarnation and forward to the Second Coming. Sherwood contrasts wishful thinking with biblical hope, which Romans 5 describes as the product of suffering, perseverance, and character. Ultimately, he challenges us to realize that hope isn't just something we find, but something we become through the presence of Christ.
